In the Indiana return, see Here's the income that Indiana handles differently.
The deduction should be there if you meet the qualifications.
If you don't see a deduction, it could be because you have Social Security or Railroad Retirement benefits that exceed $16,000.
See Indiana IT-40 booklet, page 18
"Civil Service Annuity Deduction 601
The income on line 1 of Form IT-40 may include federal civil service annuity income. If it does, you may be eligible to take a deduction if you were at least 62 years of age by the end of the tax year and/or a surviving spouse of a civil service annuitant.
For each civil service annuitant, the deduction is limited to:
- the lesser of the amount of taxable civil service annuity income included in federal adjusted gross income or $16,000,
- less all amounts of Social Security income and tier 1 and tier 2 Railroad Retirement income (issued by the Railroad Retirement Board) received by the civil service annuitant."
